DUBAI, May 23 (Reuters) - Bahraini security forces raided the home of the kingdom's top Shi'ite Muslim cleric and arrested a number of individuals inside on Tuesday, an activist and a security official said.

The security official said six people wanted for security offences were arrested. It was no immediately clear whether the cleric, Ayatollah Isa Qassim, was among those detained.
